Good Morning!

What a strange time we are living in...

Today I need to crack on with the forums and blogs and then this afternoon we might need to do a few NHS volunteer runs.

Just deciding whether to have Rice Krispies or Bran Flakes for brekkle.

Good morning, everyone hang tough. I am lucky in a way I retired about three years ago after almost 50yrs. in the tile business. This job takes a toll on the body. Two knee operations and sore back. My son ( 3rd generation) has been setting tile for several years. I am glad to be out now as the tiles are getting bigger and bigger ( his brother in law is working with 2'x4' tiles right now).
As I said I am retired but have been doing some work for friends, neighbors and a contractor who lives up the street from me. Stay safe.
 
Good morning in advance! Should be grouting a cloakroom loo tomorrow, but instead home schooling a 5 year old and writing an essay! Wish u all all the best and would like to show my appreciation for the knowledge shared and advice given on this site
check out our new tape for plaster beads while you have some free time, pm me for more details.

Morning all.
It's about 40 and real damp out. Forecast is a high of 59 on Sunday then rain snow thru Thurs.
The good thing is the snow dosen't last for more than a day or two.
Having lived in Northern New Jersey most of my life I don't miss the snow. One year we had 13 snowfalls in 13 weeks, between 12"-30" each. The 30" one left me with 6'-7' drifts in the drive and 4' on the roof.
I was shoveling the roof to prevent ice dams.
It got so bad I had to have my neighbor clear out some snow from the drive with his backhoe as I did not have any more room to put the snow. I had piles 8'-10' high.
Where I live now NC, USA when ever there is a forecast of snow the locals get real excited, they can't wait!
It was here that I fell first ever cleaning snow off the cars. It started ad rain then froze then snowed on top, making it real slick.
Since I am retired now every day feels like the weekend. I have a few bathrooms and a laundry room to do for a builder who lives and is building a new house less than a mile up the street from me it will be a nice commute.

There are similar tiling threads here

Morning All! I thought it was about time to start a new Good Morning Thread. The old thread can be found HERE but is quite long so not as easy to find specific posts. So tell us what you are up...
